deuces wild Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 My son has asked for an iPod docking station with speakers for his 18th birthday.I am leaning towards the Altec Lansing 'inMotion iM3 Portable Audio System'.Has anyone had any experience (good or bad) with this system or can you recommend another one?I can pick it up for around $124 including shipping: http://www.6ave.com/product.jsp?zipz=11001&x=im3&w=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deuces wild Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Thanks Tankus. I saw that one. Do you own one and would you recommend it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankus Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 yes and yes but Ive not heard the Altec ...so I'm not sure how it compares sound wise the only downer Ive found on the jbl ...is the fairly big transformer plug ...which is not shown in the piccy , which makes it a little less portable than it initially seems ... Its quite dinky .....but for the size ... it does sound good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankus Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 bit light on base ..but clear ...size and price considering 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Altec Lansing is a quality speaker manufacturer. I have not used the iPod dock you are talking about, but my speaker set-up has been running strong for years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
